Okay. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, I don’t believe in Bigfoot, aliens, ghosts or the Loch Ness monster. However, the latest and disturbing growing number of black people getting killed by police has given me more than enough reason to take notice. It’s not just the amount of people that bothers me, it’s also the fact that they are getting away with it so damn easily.

I wrote a post a while back about how this new breed of cop murder is just another form of lynching, and the cops in most cities across America have done nothing to prove me wrong. Actually, it’s the exact opposite, despite some on the force seen shaking hands with the protesters or giving them hugs. Hugs and handshakes, as lovely as they are, aren’t the solution to a very disturbing problem.

We need real actual effort on the part of the police all over the country to put themselves in check before they go into a black neighborhood. Not just a cutesy poo ‘we are the world act’ for the cameras, which I think is just for show. The cops had no issue with previously setting tanks and M-16s on black people protesting, a scene reminiscent of the 1960’s where black folks were violently attacked by the police with dogs and hoses.

Now, all of a sudden it’s supposed to be a love fest even as 19 year-old teen Tony Robinson lays dead from a gunshot wound. Mr. Robinson is the young man from Madison, Wisconsin that has become another statistic in the long line of young black folks dying at the hands of cops. The cop who shot him, Matt Kenny, claims that he shot Robinson in the head because Robinson was punching him and being combative. Where I have I heard that one before?

Apparently, Kenny feels that there was just no other way he could have handled that situation besides brutally gunning down young Mr. Robinson. I call BULLSHIT! How many times have we heard of white males – some older and therefore stronger than Mr. Robinson, getting into extremely physical altercations with police and not a one of them were shot dead? Even if there wasn’t a video available, that white male still comes out of the altercation with his live very much intact.

Kenny also says that he went to that housing project because of a 911 call and that when he arrived, Robinson’s suspicious behavior compelled him to chase Robinson. Once again I call bullshit!

The bottom line is that this cuntbag saw a young black youth, albeit in this case, a light skinned one, and immediately assumed he was up to no good, that coupled with my own opinion of why these cases are happening with such regularity and that is none other than the President of the United States.

We all are fully aware that electing a black man into the white House didn’t make this country post-racial. Far from it. Yes, I know that young black males who were not dangerous and unarmed were getting shot prior to Obama becoming president. But damn, doesn’t it feel like this stories keep happening with a rapid succession?

They haven’t even laid the last body to rest before we hear another sad, sordid tale of a cop shooting a black youth then walking away scot free. Twelve year–old Tamir Rice was playing with what many who have seen the video said was visibly a toy gun. Yet, his life, like many others, was taken by a trigger happy cop.

I understand that the attitude of most cops, even black people, is that young Negroes are born bad. So, when one even looks at you funny shoot first to save yourself. However, with the election of Obama something greater is at stake for a bunch of white folks, and that is potential.

Young black males see that they can not only have a future but one as a leader. They don’t have to rely on that excuse that they don’t believe they will make it to their 25th birthday. They can someday be in charge having white folks answering to them and that scares the holy hell out of certain white people. Don’t agree, just check out the Tea Party slogan of “Take our country back”. What the fuck else is that but a call to arms? That is another rhetoric, fear induced mindset that we have to put these darkies back in their place, lest they begin thinking too much of themselves by believing that they could one day become president.

As we have seen with a certain rapper I won’t name, black men having far too much faith in their abilities scares the crap out of some white folks. What better way to show those beneath you that you are the one in power than to sick your militia on them. That is what happened in France and Russia during the 50’s and 60’s and it continues to happen to black people in the good old US of A. Not to ‘act’ like black males are the only ones subject to the tyranny of a police state.

Rekia Boyd, Marlene Pinnock, Matrice Richardson, Aiyana Jones and Katherine Johnson are several of the names of black females that have also suffered at the hands of 5-0. And just like black men, their deaths or beatings have met with little to no recourse for the officers involved. You know, cops have over stepped their bounds when even white males on Fake Noise are calling them out. One of the hosts on FOX’s conservative gabfest “Red Eye” named Andy Levy said that the reason there is so much turmoil and conflict is because of the way the cops are acting. Andy pointed out, and I agree, that when you keep treating people like shit they will respond in kind.

His comments were in regards to two police that were shot in Ferguson, Missouri. Of course the new chief of police that replaced the one who stepped down is doing his utmost to find whoever was responsible. He doesn’t seem nearly as concerned with doing everything possible to stop his employees from terrorizing and murdering black folks, particularly at a time when white fears of losing what they have to the darkie horde is at a zenith. The police now have to walk a fine line because the ones they have brutalized are fighting back. Believe me when I say that their new love, a dove behavior with the Negroes in the community is because they are under the gun for a change. The police have realized that they are vulnerable as well and that the people who they have used for their own personal whipping boys and girls aren’t going to take it anymore.

Instead of trying to save face, maybe they should do a better job of rearranging their policies. There is a quote from the great Martin Luther King that goes “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth leaves everybody blind and toothless”. If the powers that be get the message that black folks refuse to tolerate their shit, then I think it’s worth it.

White people never fail to surprise or amaze when it comes to the level that their stupidity or racism will sink.

Recently, one of the hosts of E! channel’s show “Fashion Police” Giuliana Rancic made a disparaging and – some would say – racist comment about pop singer Zendaya. Zendaya was wearing dreadlocks while appearing on the red carpet several weeks ago. This is when Ms. Rancic felt the need to make a snide comment about her hair saying that it looked like it smelled of weed.

HUH! How the fuck can she tell what someone’s hair smells like by looking at it? Or maybe it’s that little Ms. Rancic believes any human being with brown enough skin and dreads just must smoke weed. Giuliana was never once so vocal about Justin Bieber’s drug predilection despite that fact that he was caught with that magic herb on his person. Still, if you are perceived as an ‘other’, that makes it okay for white people to make a folly of your lifestyle or habits.

I don’t know Zendaya personally. So I don’t know if she has a fondness for hash or not. I would hope not seeing how she’s a minor. And that’s another thing. You have this supposedly grown woman taking potshots at a teen. Way to keep it classy Ms. G!

Another idiot in the growing line of stupid ass white folks whose mouths need to be on lockdown is semi-talented actor Vince Vaughn. Vaughn was asked in a recent interview about his support of Republican hopeful Rand Paul and the conversation turned to the issue of Affirmative Action. Vince, of course, was all for it.

Just kidding. He took the typical whiny, arrogant, spoiled brat approach that many whites do. Vince complained, as usual, that the government sanctioned policy was racist. Extremely hollow words coming from a man who really isn’t all that remarkable an actor, is not the least bit attractive and is more annoying than anything else. Yeah, Vince because you really have to worry about less talented black men taking your job, right?

There is just no justice for white males in Hollywood judging by the self-serving comments from readers on the Root website. One particular asshole even had the nerve to bring up Eddie Murphy as if one or two or even twenty successful black males in Hollywhite makes it even. Here’s a headline; it doesn’t. Any black person that has made it in the film industry has done so in spite of all the obstacles placed before them. And as I have stated before for every one Will Smith, there are about 30 Matt Damons and Ben Stillers.

When the rational voice of reason who wrote the article rightfully pointed out that the only people who have truly benefitted from Affirmative Action have been white women, she was of course shut down. Even if that were not the case, it still doesn’t give white males who have decades of benefitting from their skin privilege to bitch about something that hasn’t really helped as much as they like to think. The whole point of Affirmative Action was so that those who weren’t white could have an equal chance at getting a good job. Somehow that logic became to white males an opportunity for less qualified Negroes to get more hand-outs. Well guess what white males, even if that were the case A LOT OF BLACK FOLKS IN AMERICA DESERVE A FUCKING HAND-OUT, the same ones you have had ever since your ancestors got here dumb shit, not to mention the ones that you had while sitting on your ass getting free labor from Negroes. So do not even speak about someone having an unfair advantage from the government when you have had one since the day that you were born.

I wonder how badly Mr. Vaughn has had to struggle in his pursuit to be a movie star in a profession that he, I and everybody that watches movies knows caters mostly to white people, white males in particular. If anything, it’s the mindset of whiny pissants like him who are now pissed that if too many black folks are given an opportunity, they might just outshine his ass. That right there is what I think the real problem is for many white males, including those who keep talking about how they scored higher on the test, yet the black guy got picked instead of them. Honestly, if your ass is that damn smart then why aren’t you doing a more professional job? I never hear white males that are accountants, architects, lawyers or chemical engineers complaining about Affirmative Action. Gee, I can’t imagine what the explanation for that could possibly be.

Greaseball white trash rapper, now country star Kid Rock had the utter gall to say in a recent interview that he wouldn’t date Beyonce because he likes very skinny white women with big boobs. I think he must have meant fake big boobs seeing how his ex-wife was chemically enhanced. Seriously, who does this asswipe think he is that Beyonce would even want him in the first place? Every time I see that pig, he looks like he just got finished changing the oil in someone’s car and he expects that a beautiful black woman would care that she doesn’t appeal to him! Please!

It’s always the nastiest, ugliest, stupidest, most raggedy white males that claim they won’t date a black woman. Thanks but no thanks Kid Shmuck because I’m positive that you don’t float her boat any more than you do mine.

Last and very least is the world’s biggest prick this side of Fake Noise’s Bill O’ Reilly. Adolf Rudolph Giuliani uttered at a speech recently that President Barack Obama hates America. Right, he spent all that time campaigning, going from city to city, and spent all that money just to govern a country that he despises. Those words are not new coming from the rightwingnut party or from Giuliani himself which makes his recent spewing of bullshit all the more ridiculous.

I’m not much of a fan of Louis Farrakhan but I loved that he stepped up to the plate to call that fool on his crap. Mr. Farrakhan so eloquently and truthfully stated that Giuliani is a privileged little punk, that he is in no position to question Barack Obama’s loyalties to America.

I understand people, even celebrities, have a right to their opinion regardless of how stupid and asinine it may be. However, when you talk rhetoric that is racist and insulting, then you are just perpetuating a cycle of discrimination. Like it or not, the words of famous people have power and are highly respected sad to say. So when dummies abuse that power, I feel it’s my responsibility…hell, any black person’s responsibility to put their silly ass in check.

The exceptional Chauncey Devega whom I adore greatly once wrote a post that Brotha reposted on this site about Colorado shooter James Holmes. My man Chauncey said – and very accurately so – that white males have the privilege of their violence being seen as uncommon. When a white male does something exceedingly and sadistically violent, they are seen as an outsider, an anomaly. James Holmes can’t possibly represent all or most white males because he is supposedly insane.

Not only do white folks in the media believe that males who look like them are incapable of brutality, they make bullshit excuses for the ones that do.

Mr. Devega also pointed out that a white male’s behavior, no matter how wrong, is still seen as the act of an individual. Whereas when it’s a Negro, he is just going along with the badness of his environment. Black folks are never viewed as crazy or an individual. I personally don’t have a problem with the crazy part because that is a big-time cop out. However, white people damn sure shouldn’t continue to be allowed the right to absolve themselves of accountability when they commit criminal acts, particularly when the act is especially heinous.

Let’s not forget that there were children in the movie theater that night. Yet, white males in the media obviously care more about protecting their agenda than they do about protecting their young as anyone can attest by watching how they frame a story involving a white male and criminal behavior. A white male is given the ultimate benefit of the doubt while so-called experts hem and haw about how he’s ‘troubled’. There is not one peep about him coming from a bad environment or mixed up family. In fact, ‘they’, meaning the parents and siblings, have excuses made for them as well. It’s not anybody’s fault. Yet, those people killed that evening are still dead.

Maybe the white male media hypocrites can explain to the families of the victims that no one is to blame. Hell, shit happens! Can’t point fingers at a white male who is going through emotional trauma. Yeah, I know he murdered your loved one but hey, he’s white. So, that should be some comfort to you right?

Movie star Mark Wahlberg has recently demanded that the governor of Massachusetts pardon him for his past crimes. Apparently Mr. Action Hero doesn’t feel that he should be held to the same standards as most of us. Wahlberg thinks that because he is white, beloved and famous that the rules don’t have to apply to him. And it appears he ain’t alone as many of the hand wringing apologists on TV gabfests have once again come to a white male’s defense.

They whine that Wahlberg was a teen at the time and had a lot of anger issues. Also that he has moved on to become an accomplished award nominated actor. What they don’t mention is that he has never apologized publicly or otherwise, nor has he ever paid restitution to the man he mutilated. Although the Vietnamese man that he assaulted is all of a sudden singing a different tune, he is also trying to prevent Wahlberg from being the bad guy by saying that Marky Mark wasn’t responsible for permanently damaging his eye. The man claims that he actually lost his eye long ago in Vietnam during the war.

I have a problem with this new revelation for a number of reasons. First off, the age of the victim and the time of the war don’t add up. He would had to have been in his early teens if the story is true. Second, I find it highly suspicious that this part of the tale is being told now when Wahlberg wants it taken off his record. You mean to tell me that that man had something so astronomically important going on in his life that he couldn’t reveal that aspect 25 years ago? For that past two decades the report was that it was Wahlberg who brutally removed that man’s eye with a hook. One would think that if he were that concerned with supporting Wahlberg’s good guy image he would have spoken up sooner rather than have 99.9 percent of the public believe that Mark Wahlberg attacked him with a hook leaving him with only one functioning eye. He is just now changing his tune, making me think that this has more to do with Wahlberg getting what he wants than him truly being innocent. I have a strong inkling that even if Wahlberg were absolutely 100% guilty he would still have many whites in the media pleading his case. On top of that, Wahlberg himself has never denied injuring that man so severely in the attack.

You’d think that the last thing Wahlberg would want is having the public believe he’s such a sadistic asshole. Yet, it’s the same thing happening with once popular star of the CW show “Seventh Heaven” Stephen Collins. Collins has been revealed to be a pedophile which he has readily admitted. However, instead of getting scorn and hatred, he is getting the plush kid gloves [poor choice of words I know] treatment usually reserved for white male celebrities. Not one person has come out to say what a wretched lowlife piece of shit Collins is. No, they use words like ‘ugly’ or ‘sad’ situation that is code word for white people wanting to make it look good without having to actually put in the effort. As much as they don’t want the rest of us to believe that they are still kissing his worthless ass that is exactly what they are doing.

White males are given the privilege of compassion for what they do regardless of how horrific it is. Perhaps they feel that having sex with underage girls when you are a grown ass man is ok. Or maybe it’s the fact that they are forever desperate to keep up appearances. It’s those Negroes that are bad and do wrong things, not us. It’s those Negroes like Michael that rape little kids. It’s those Negroes like R. Kelly that force themselves on minors, not us.

According to their logic white males are never guilty of such a terrible thing, even the ones who confess. By the way, any dumbass who still wants to imagine that Collins came forward because of a crisis of conscience seriously needs to piss off. That asshole is only telling the truth now because he got caught. Period. End of story.

Collins would have never done that of his own accord seeing how he didn’t when nobody knew just what a sleazy sack of crap he is. Yet, he doesn’t deserve outrage? He, like most white males, needs compassion and understanding? I’m surprised that the holier-than media hasn’t trouted out that disease bullshit. It could be coming soon though. Collins is certainly getting more sympathy than Bill Cosby who many have already tried, sentenced and convicted. Even while there is zero evidence to support the women coming forward with accusations. Those same accusations are completely disregarded when the male is white cough Ah-nuld cough.

I find it hilarious that many of the white female Cosby accusers are saying that they were too ‘afraid’ of him to speak out. When the fuck have white women ever been terrified of demonizing a black man even when they are lying, especially when they are lying, lest we forget the Scottsboro boys complete miscarriage of justice. That’s not to say whether or not they are lying. I don’t know, but if I am less than enthused about believing the word of a white woman against a black man then I have good reason, particularly since Cosby is being dragged through the mud while the admitted white male child molester is allowed to skate away scot free. Funny, but some in the media think that he is the one with privilege. Bill Cosby obviously doesn’t seem to have the same amount that they do no matter how much they deny it.

I have a lot of admiration for the current mayor of New York Bill DeBlasio. If, for nothing else, he’s not afraid to fight for what he believes. And he’s got more guts and heart than the last 15 mayors of that city put together especially America’s favorite Rudy Giuliani. Mr. DeBlasio has been taking some serious crap from the police department of New York, because he has sided with African-American protesters.

When the mayor went to the funerals for two cops recently killed, the police there turned their backs on him. That act was a complete and utter dick move meant to disrespect DeBlasio, because he is facing so much resentment from the NYPD. I have a very sneaky suspicion that many on the force are pissed at him because of his son Dante. White folks are notorious in this day and age for not coming out and saying what they really mean. In case you have been under a rock the past couple of years, Bill’s son Dante is part-black. So, you can’t tell me that some of the anger he is facing just has nothing to do with his affection for his child.

The reality of the situation is that New York’s latest mayor is fully aware of the danger his son is in dealing with cops. I’m sure he’s heard the very tragic stories about Amadou Diallo, Mike Brown, Oscar Grant, Malice Green, Timothy Thomas, Eric Garner and countless others. Although Mr. DeBlasio is not a black man, he has a black son, which gives him a special insight into trying to raise and protect his teenage offspring. That is something white parents rarely, if ever, will have to spend endless nights pondering. He has the unique privilege of realizing just how much a young black life matters, because it’s the person he created with his wife. There is a shitload more at stake for him than any other mealy-mouthed white male politician offering promises that they won’t deliver on. Or giving false security with clever words as they hope to appease a frustrated and pent-up black horde. Perhaps for the only time there is a white male who can truly say he knows how the other half lives, because half of him is their main target. He knows what threat awaits his son who sports a full on old school afro with light yet still noticeably black skin. There is no way he can sacrifice his first born while kissing the ass of the NYPD regardless of how many toes get stepped on.

I would bet millions of imaginary dollars that if the choice came right down to it, DeBlasio would pick his son over the cops. The conversation Bill has with his son is going to be very different than the one that Giuliani has with his boy. This is probably what has so many on the police force back East up in arms. They have dropped many not-so subtle hints that DeBlasio is biased because of Dante. To that I say, well no shit Sherlock! Of course, he has more concern for his son’s life than hurting the feelings of those officers. Dante is his son, and he has every right to side with his son over a group of people that would think nothing of taking his son’s life in a hot minute. The man is in his 50’s, and he’s not stupid. He knows damn good and well what kind of trouble could potentially be out there for his son, the same kind of trouble that many young and old black folks have had forced on them for so long.

For those who think that this attitude is being spurred on by his wife, I call bullshit. As I stated before, he doesn’t strike me as a dumb man or a man who needs someone else to do his thinking for him. Yes, he probably saw this coming even before Dante was born, but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t have conceived him.

It’s the cops who are at fault for making black people hate them and for making themselves the enemy. Now, they are trying to make DeBlasio their enemy, because they don’t like where his loyalties lie. Well guess what assholes, he is behaving as any parent worth their salt would. There is nothing irrational about wanting to keep your child from harm, especially when it comes from arrogant, racist, privileged thugs who use their badge as a birthright to brutality.

Not only has there been no remorse or apologies from the NYPD, the cops in the big apple have been downright defiant. They see no issue with all the unnecessary violence that they have perpetuated for years. Of course, Mr. DeBlasio has to put on a good show to try and please everyone. That’s his job. However, he shouldn’t have the cops demand that he decide between them and his son. I gather they won’t like the answer since they have this ‘if you ain’t with us, then you are against us’ mentality.

Interesting how the cops speak of their families and wanting to keep them safe while attacking DeBlasio for doing the very same thing. He wants his son to make it to a ripe old age too, and they have no business whatsoever to deny him that right. They already think that they can deny his son a hassle free life from their tyranny and supremacy. I don’t blame his father one bit for saying, hey not with my damn kid you don’t. That’s what he is supposed to do, not spare the hurt bunny attitude of fools that abuse their power. Then use the supremacy mindset to justify that behavior knowing whose side the majority of the public will be on any time there is an altercation with a Negro that ends fatally.

But now they want to get huffy, because the mayor of their town has other ideas. Instead of turning their backs on him they should be trying to change the rhetoric. They want to be irate, because it won’t work this time like it did before. There is a new era in charge, and that is what I believe actually has them so upset.

Even DeBlasio’s opponents weren’t the least bit shy in turning back the proverbial racism clock to derail his campaign, because he proudly paraded around his bi-racial family. Many criticized him for trying to get the black vote by saying, ‘See, I have Negroes in my house and they aren’t robbing the place’. Last time I looked, all the politicians’ showcase the most important people in their life come election time. What’s wrong with his picture is that his family is not the typical white reflection that most of America has come to expect. And DeBlasio is a white male that has a far different agenda than previous politicians from buying into their bullshit. He has his own mind and his own personal reasons for how he feels. So, if they don’t like it, they can turn their fronts to the Hudson River then jump in.

2015 will be upon us, unless you’ve read this post after New Year’s. But looking back in the year 2014, it was definitely a wild ride with more loops to go through.

We lost several famous people along the way. We lost James Avery and Juanita Moore when the year started on a ridiculously cold note due to that thing known as the polar vortex. You know, the time when everything was much colder than usual and conservatives considered it proof that there’s no such thing as global warming.

Then, there was the whole Chris Christie scandal and that situation with the Washington Bridge. It was on the news for a while, but I guess it’s no longer an issue, at least for the New Jersey mayor.

I guess people were more hyped about the Seattle Seahawks going to the Super Bowl with Richard Sherman leading the charge in the most scary-to-most-white-people way when he trashed talked like a WWE wrester on national TV. People, mostly racists, considered that “thug” behavior. We all know why that is. But even if he was “respectable” like Forrest Whitiker’s role in the movie The Butler, racist fuckers would still find a reason to hate on Sherman. A black man, especially a father doing the damn thing like combing his daughter’s hair can never win in this shithole of a society. If assholes like Ted Nugent can take a shit on the legacy of Dr. King, they can screw over any black person. Or they would prefer to find the less reputable of us like that video of a toddler cursing up a storm while adults got their chuckles on and consider that as “black culture”.

That gave rise to the media sensation of the so-called “knockout games” where a few black youth would literally knock down random people in the street. Media reporting got so bad that you have people like Ashley Depew “creating” nonexistent black suspects to cover up those who actually fucked them up.

The hatred of black men is evident among America’s “finest” as it seems like we’ve seen a spike of cop killings this year alone. We’ve lost Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Akai Gurley, Eric Garner, John Crawford and Yvette Smith, Tanesha Anderson and God knows who else. And those responsible such as the pigs that murdered Aiyana Standley-Jones, Michael Brown and Tamir Rice were able to walk away thanks to a racist injustice system.

Cops like Darren Wilson, Jeffery Follmer and apparently, hundreds of cops nationwide have that police privilege that immunes them from any responsibility when they abuse or kill anyone, including unarmed black folks. They think that they’re just doing their job and everything would be cool if people would just cooperate. And if they get their asses beat, that’s all on them.

Out of that chaos sprang a movement that demands that black lives be given the respect and dignity that is only afforded to white people. One man by the name of Ismaaiyl Brinsley took it to fatal extremes executing two cops after shooting his girl and before taking his own life. And the media saw fit to link him to the movement.

Speaking of the media and its shenanigans, have you noticed how black victims are treated poorly as compared to white suspects? If not, lots of people did. It seems white people are basically good folks, but a few – according to the same media – have glitches that cause them to go haywire in the most violent way possible. Such was the case of Elliot Rodger, the misogynistic, racist, overprivileged fool who shot up Isla Vista in California or Bradley William Stone, the guy who shot six people in Pennsylvania before killing himself. And let’s not forget the pumpkin madness caused by young whites over something stupid or the usual Halloween racists who still haven’t gotten the moment that people of color are not costumes. All while showing the world they didn’t care too much for the numerous African women kidnapped earlier this year.

White people, particularly those of the famous variety, continued to show off their privileges and racism this year. Iggy Azalea, Ridley Scott (Well, Hollywood in general for producting such tripe like Blended, Noah and Exodus), Donald Sterling, Tal Fortgang, Anthony Cumia (One-half of the former duo Opie and Anthony), the dudes who frequent on websites like 4chan, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, the fools who went to poor black neighborhoods pranking poor blacks and almost getting their asses whooped on and, of course, xPrae continue to deny white privilege while actively perpetuating, participating, producing and promoting it.

We also saw black shame from the media. Ray Rice (and a few other black athletes that caught the attention of TMZ which caught the attention of other news outlets), Solange and yes, Bill Cosby have made the news for all the wrong reasons that threaten negative stereotypes. Ray Rice beat his wife. Solange beat Jay-Z. And Cosby’s accused of beating up the pu…well, I won’t go there, but you know what I mean. He’s accused of being a serial rapist. Then there’s the Real Housewives of Atlanta, Love and Hip Hop and the scourge known as Sorority Sisters. Does Mona Scott hate black people?

However, we’ve seen a lot of great things this year. Shonda Rhimes wows audiences with her new show How to Get Away with Murder starring Viola Davis. We saw the release of Blackish starring Anthony Anderson and Tracey Ellis Ross. We see Michael Sam showing the world that being gay is a beautiful thing. We saw young black women and men being overachievers, geniuses, entrepreneurs, activists, defying stereotypes and doing the damn thing. And we will, without a doubt, see more of that in 2015.

What do you remember most about 2014? What do you remember that I’ve missed in this article? What do you hope to see in 2015? Sound off below and I’ll see you next year.

It appears to me that the white powers-that-be in charge have found a new way to get away with lynching. And that is by relying on white police officers in America.

Many officers have appeared on TV whining their position by saying that if those impudent Negroes hadn’t done what they did, then they would still be alive. It’s no surprise or coincidence that most, if not all, cops pleading the case for the boys in blue are white. This is what’s supposed to bridge the gap between black folks and the cops, a bunch of obnoxious, stupid, self-serving pricks defending their behavior no matter how wrong?

The fact that the media, as well as the cops themselves, are using a white face exclusively as the voice of authority tells me they don’t want to solve this problem. It also says that cops aren’t willing in any way, shape or form to admit that they make mistakes or aren’t always right. Make no mistake that when you see a cop on TV, it’s the media and their way of telling us haughty Negroes that we’d better watch our step.

Some cops even have the gall to complain and criticize African-American athletes for wearing tee shirts that condemn their actions. Might I remind those same police officers that this is a free fucking country, and they don’t have a damn thing to say about what someone wears! So, are they going to start shooting the players, because they aren’t happy with how rich, uppity black males are expressing their opinion? Last time I checked the laws of this land called America says that they can do just that. So the cops bitching right now can shove it up one end and pull it out the other.

I have no respect for cops, especially at the present time. And for those who claim that cops are here to protect all the citizens, spare me. You can’t continue to justify reckless, senseless and RACIST murders, then still expect respect. It ain’t going to happen. Freedom obviously isn’t free for everyone and since cops seem to think that it’s still 1935 with regards to them believing that they can tell black men what to do, they must also feel that it’s open season on young black lives, the same way that it was for a lot, and I do mean lot, of white males when lynching was their favorite sport and it was all perfectly legal.

Not too long ago white males could kill black folks without batting an eye, and there was, of course, zero consequence. Police departments across America are taking that mindset to heart. They see their badge and gun as a free license to keep the tradition set by their ancestors and forefathers rolling right along. Cops are fully aware of their power and the fact that unless it’s something extremely heinous against a protected member of society, they can basically do whatever the fuck they want. Black people were having this conversation 100 years ago, then 50 years ago, and it hasn’t stopped.

The blame for that can’t be placed anywhere else but solely on the cops themselves. If they want to go there with showing respect, then why is it that the majority of the deaths are black folks and not them? I could understand their point if the body count was even remotely equal, but it ain’t. However, because we live in a land that supports the master/slave mentality, I doubt that will ever occur.

The battle is very one-sided. Yet, they still want to lie and deny that the blame should ever fall on their shoulders. This is why I shed no tears when I hear that a cop’s life has been taken in the line of duty. Sounds harsh right? Well guess what? I refuse to give a shit while so many black mothers and fathers are burying their kids and worrying about funeral expenses. I don’t care about the death of a cop when so many happily live in the same denial that they imagine we do. If they were hoping that I or any other black people would agree, then they have come to the wrong place.

You can’t tell me that a thug shooting 41 shots wouldn’t notice that there wasn’t any return fire. That also goes for 50 shots, and since when the fuck is 50 shots even necessary to take down a suspect? Those sonsofbitches know damn good and well what they are doing when they end black lives. Period. End of story.

When dealing with a child carrying a fake gun, you mean to tell me that they would have felt so damn in fear for their safety if that boy were white? The answer to that would be a resounding HELL NO! We have all been here before, and the conversation has already been spoken for them to just not get it. These fuckers keep killing Negroes for one reason and one reason only, because they know they can.

You can have as many high-minded house Negroes like Oprah and Charles Barkley all you want, but that won’t change a damn thing. The murders are being committed by people who go to work every day with the knowledge of whose live is valuable and whose isn’t. So, the little platitudes about how it’s the fault of us black folks, because we don’t do as we are told is just more hot air bullshit. Furthermore, there is often times more than one person involved. So, stop acting as if your thought process or judgment can’t possibly be tainted. Cops can be the most racist, bigoted assholes on the planet just like white people in any occupation. Don’t demand that we never question your motives or tactics especially in how you deal with people that you have a very bad history with. Cops have gone out of their way to make themselves the enemy when it comes to Negroes. That said, they don’t get to dictate to Lebron, Jordan, Tiger or any black human being how we should respond to you or whether we can call you out on your bullshit.

The same forefathers that you continue to murder black people for also gave us that right like it or not. We also have the right to peaceably assemble, but not when constantly facing violence and brutality from you. You get what you give. I only wish more black folks had the guts to take up arms in how they deal with you. Of course, we get prison time where you just get suspended. And you have the absolute nerve to wonder why we don’t want to do what you tell us. It’s because we know you won’t treat the people who look like you that way. What you call serve and protect I call an opportunity to finish what other white males started so long ago.

There has been a lot of talk about how the protests occurring in Ferguson, Chicago, Detroit, Boston and all across America over the killing of Mike Brown and other young black people by police should remain peaceful. My two cents on the subject is DAMN THAT!

As Brotha so rightfully stated while beating me to the punch, European explorers, who then became European settlers, who then became white Americans, have always used violence to resolve their conflicts. Throughout the history of European occupation on foreign lands, including this one, males with fair skin have resorted to brutality to send their point home. Look up any history not tainted by false propaganda, and you will find that wanting your position respected by committing vile, sadistic acts has been the calling card of white men for centuries.

Starting with old Chris Columbus, who is seen as a hero by white folks, and how treated the Indigenous people already inhabiting American soil. That culminated with the ultimate in evil, the slave trade, right up to WW2 where American citizens, who happen to be born with Japanese lineage, were put in internment camps. There is also the matter of the atomic bomb being dropped on Hiroshima in Japan. In the mid to late 60’s, it was the American involvement in the Vietnam War. Once Reagan was elected, he began this so called ‘war on drugs’. So naturally, any country that brown people who spoke Spanish lived in became a target. After him we had W’s daddy, who soon declared war on – and is still attacking Arab folks in the Middle East. Seriously, how the fuck are you going to go to another man’s country and tell him that he has to leave or else? And how the hell can you expect peace from the very same group of people that for decades you have shown nothing but contempt and oppression. If the white males who work for and support the thin blue line of destruction want peace from Negroes, then they damn sure better show likewise.

Notice how none of the examples I mentioned spoke of white people turning their aggression on those who resemble them. In fact, many times, white male German prisoners of war were allowed to inhabit establishments that black people could not. Plus, there were no bombs dropped on any Italian or German countries, and neither of those groups was forced into internment camps. Yet, according to many white people in America, if you are born here ,then you should just call yourself a regular old American.

They complain that Negroes shouldn’t keep distancing ourselves from the red, white and blue by hyphenating our ancestral terminology with a country that we have no real allegiance to. Well damn, I wonder why the hell that is!? I don’t…

Actually, I know exactly why is it. It’s because those same white folks saying that are talking out of one side of their mouth. Make up your fucking mind, stupid! Either I AM an American or I’m not, because at the rate you are going, you are making it very clear which moniker is more appropriate.

White people can’t expect us to play nice while kicking sand in our faces and pushing us off the swing that ain’t how it works, particularly when no one is immune regardless of age, occupation, economic status, education, looks. Nothing protects you from police violence when you are black.

William Randall Cox, who is a doctor was tasered so viciously at the birthday party for his teen son that he had a heart attack. Maurice White Jr. was another tasing victim of thug cops needing to prove to this impudent Negro who really is boss. An 80 year-old black woman with Alzheimer’s and a cane was body slammed so roughly to the ground by a white female cop that it cracked her skull. Aiyana Jones, who was only 7 years-old, was shot and killed by a white male cop, who to this day has not faced any charges or even an investigation, despite the fact that the whole scenario was filmed for a TV show which was later scrapped. Even if they didn’t air the footage for the viewing public, it still should have been used as evidence. Bernard Monroe was at his house enjoying a summer barbecue with his family when cops showed up claiming that there was an arrest warrant for his grown son. Mr. Monroe behaved as anyone would by demanding to know why they were there disrupting his family’s good time. The situation ended with Mr. Monroe being shot and killed by police who claimed that he went for one of the officer’s gun in an altercation. Now, where have we heard that one before?

The lies have become so standard that the police are using them for all occasions when they murder yet another innocent black person. One of Mr. Monroe’s family members said that it looked like one of the cops was trying to plant a gun on the dead man. And the family was not allowed anywhere near the body, nor were they able to call an ambulance for several hours.

Meanwhile, the media is preaching that Negroes should stay humble in the face of so much heinous behavior. White people who rarely experience despicable violence at the hands of cops are telling black folks that it’s somehow our responsibility to bridge the gap between them and us. If we would only stop treating officers as less of a friend, then we wouldn’t have such bad relations. That sounds like a classic case of playing blame the victim.

Cops will commit sickening cruel acts, because they know they can get away with it against society’s most expendable citizens. So, fucking spare me the “It’s because we haughty bad little darkies aren’t willing to kiss and make-up” rational. Don’t lecture me on how I should react when you get a far more positive display of behavior from them than we do. Of course, you feel that way, because you have that damn luxury from cops not slaughtering people who look like you left and right or creating this culture of brutality and distrust.

I also don’t see how unleashing tanks and aiming assault rifles at unarmed civilians is helping matters either. One time host of the ABC gabfest “The View” Lisa Ling had the nerve to say that cops put their lives on the line every day for the public. Well, that sure as shit ain’t the segment of the public whose lives they are trying to end at every fucking opportunity! Cops are only about keeping black folks in line and nothing more.

Stephen Colbert, who hosts his own show on Comedy Central, spoke of three white males that dared cops to shoot them, yet they are miraculously still alive and breathing. The same can’t be said for many black folks that have unfortunate run-ins with police officers. This is why I agree with Brotha when he says that he doesn’t blame the protesters or the late and great James Baldwin who defended young black folks swiping TVs in 1968. It’s not about wanting a TV that badly. It’s about thumbing your nose at the system the only way you know how to,the very same system that’s run by people who speak of peace one minute while they engage in violence themselves the next.

And for those high minded Negroes who criticize the rioters I say shut your whiny holier-than-ass up. You spend a lot of time talking and no time acting. Instead of complaining, why don’t you do a better job of fighting for black folks rights. You claim their methods aren’t working, but from the looks of things, neither are yours.

It looks like we’re either in the eye of the storm that is the rape scandal of once-beloved father figure Bill Cosby, or that the storm is weakening. I prefer to think we’re in the eye. Something else is sure to come up.

As stated in my previous entry observing Cosby’s downfall, the news and tabloid media stuck with the story for all its juiciness. Left-wing oriented media condemned Cosby almost instantly keeping track of the unraveling story and express progressiveness to speaking out against rape culture while, to no surprise, right-wing media supported him. After all, he did tell black people to get it together and to stop blaming the white man.

But one thing I noticed is that most black people were still supporting him during this trying time where a role model’s image is being destroyed due to accusations of over a dozen women, mostly white, who said that they were drugged and raped by the comedian. We’ve seen and done this before with other blacks, including those who hold little to no regard towards the black community.

Remember the O.J. trial? I’ve never seen people so heavily divided on one issue as I did with that instance in my young life. Every black person I knew said without flinching that O.J. was innocent. At the same time, every white person I knew said the opposite. O.J., a once admired football star-turned-actor was charged with the murder of his wife Nichole Brown and friend Ronald Goldman, both white. It was white America’s greatest fear played out on an international scale in what was considered by some as the trial of the century.

O.J. Simpson during his trial

O.J. was found not guilty by the courts, but he was still guilty in the eyes of many. Yet, a lot of brothas and sistas, to this day, still believe O.J. was innocent, even though he practically hung up his blackness.

Why is it that we support those who disregard or look down on blackness like it’s a bad thing and them being black themselves? I would venture to guess that it’s the same reason why white folks stick with people like Darren Wilson, the cop who shot and killed Michael Brown, or George Zimmerman, the vigilante white Hispanic who shot and killed Trayvon Martin. Living in a nation that prides in despising differences can create a sense of paranoia that the dominant group is out to get your group members, and that paranoia came from events that the dominant group doesn’t want to talk about.

As with the Cosby case, it reminds black Americans of the dark days of the past where black men were thought to have a lust for white women so strong and savage that they would rape them every chance they get, especially if they were free. White males back then, and today, believe that black men want to rape white women, and even white woman believe it to the point where they would lie about it dooming innocent black males to lynch mobs.

It was so bad that even flirting with a white woman would get you killed. Don’t believe me? Ask Emmett Till, or rather, ask his next of kin.

When a black man is accused of rape by a white woman, it brings back history’s not-so pleasant moments. Sure, not all of us were alive when this all went down. And it’s not as fatal as it used to be. But the fear is real and widespread. As you know, we live in a culture of collective judgment. So, one black male accused of rape, not only proves stereotypes held by racist white men but also, concludes that most or all black men are culpable of the same viciousness.

But it’s the same in reverse. As mentioned earlier, Zimmerman and Wilson had a lot of white supporters backing them. Why? My guess would be related to a recent study that said that whites believe there is more racism against them than blacks. In other words, they think black people are rising to the top of the food chain, and that scares the crap out of them, especially with one black man in particular, the one living on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

It also goes along with many whites lacking empathy for young black males, believing that Martin and Brown were indeed, dangerous thugs up to no good. And they were rightfully taken out by men who feared for their lives, even though they both had guns and their victims didn’t.

Cosby’s image has been broken, almost beyond repair. Even so, people are still sticking with him. Like stated in a previous article, it’s hard to imagine a black man, even a famous one, of getting away with raping several white women. Cosby would not have likely made it as a co-star on “I Spy” let alone would’ve had a future producing “Fat Albert” and “The Cosby Show”. Yes, rape is a serious matter that must be confronted and tackled. However, false rapes must also be accounted for as well, especially when history has proven they can get you killed.

So yes, expect black folks to have Cosby’s back. Expect us to still think O.J. is innocent of the double murder from years back. Even though they practically dissed us, we still support them, because in the end, whether they like it or not, they are still black in America and no status or money can protect them no matter what, guilty or not.

UPDATE: Former Supermodel Beverly Johnson comes out and says she too was drugged by Bill Cosby. You can read about it here.
